Self Is The Root, The Tree, And

You Have No Questions To Ask Of Any Body, No New Way That You Need Inquire After; No Oracle That You Need To Consult; For Whilst You Shut Yourself Up In Patience, Meekness, Humility, And Resignation To God, You Are In The Very Arms Of Christ, Your Heart Is His Dwelling-place, And He Lives And Works In You.

The Greatest Saint In The World Is Not He Who Prays Most Or Fasts Most; It Is Not He Who Gives Alms, Or Is Most Eminent For Temperance, Chastity Or Justice. It Is He Who Is Most Thankful To God.

The Will Is That Which Has All Power; It Makes Heaven And It Makes Hell: For There Is No Hell But Where The Will Of The Creature Is Turned From God, Nor Any Heaven But Where The Will Of The Creature Worketh With God.

When Therefore The First Spark Of A Desire After God Arises In Thy Soul, Cherish It With All Thy Care, Give All Thy Heart Into It; It Is Nothing Less Than A Touch Of The Divine Loadstone, That Is To Draw Thee Out Of The Vanity Of Time, Into The Riches Of Eternity.

As A Good Christian Should Consider Every Place As Holy, Because God Is There, So He Should Look Upon Every Part Of His Life As A Matter Of Holiness, Because It Is Offered Unto God. The Profession Of A Clergyman Is A Holy Profession, Because It Is A Ministration In Holy Things, An Attendance At The Alter. But Worldly Business Is To Be Made Holy Unto The Lord, By Being Done As A Service Unto Him, And In Conformity To His Divine Will.
